Titans

Rise of the Titans and Creation of Amphoreus

The Titans, revered and worshipped for their divinity that shaped their world and their authority that governed the lands, seas,
heavens, and the abyss. Mortals and their creations lived with their time throughout the ages to the present era.

NOTE: They are not Aeons. They are their own entities with greater power and authority in Amphoreus.

According to one of the old legends, the world was in a state of chaos. Only then the gods cast down the Coreflames, birthing
the Titans into existence.

The Titans of Fate carved the heavens and earth. Time, Law, and Passage were born from nothingness, turning chaos into
order. They define the rules of destiny of all things.

The Titans of Foundation wove the threads of fate. Sky, Earth, and Ocean were born of chaos and transform desolation into
fertility. They sustain the seedbeds and homes of all things.

The Titans of Creation molded life with their hands. Romance, Worldbearing, and Reason were born of the void, turning
nothingness into prosperity. They are the creators of all life and civilization.

The Titans of Calamity guided the calamity’s gates. Strife, Trickery, and Death were born of peace and lead tranquility into
chaos. They guide the destruction and survival of all things.

NOTE: There are 12 Titans in total.

The Titans nurtured civilizations across the world and covered the realms with their population and cities. People thrived with
prosperity under their rule during the golden age. They coexisted sometimes in harmony, sometimes in war. Thus, there is
balance.

Arrival of the Black Tide

It was then the heretical black tide that fell from beyond the sky and flooded the world into darkness with shadows that are
darker than Death’s. The Worldbearing Titan, Kephale, lifted the Dawn Core and the Holy City “Okhema” remained under its light
and protection, at the cost of the Titan’s waking. Kephale fell into an eternal slumber.
Each city fell to the wars of mortals. Their Titan patrons went mad, tainted by the corruption. Strife sounded their horns of
battle. Their armies, hailing from the Castrum Kremnos’, now raised their weapons, and brought bloodshed to all realms,
bringing the world into destruction.

The age of the gods expired. The sun and prophecy silenced, others broke and fell by the flames of war, and those that remain
hidden never appeared to their prayers.
 Titans of Fate

Janus
Gate of Infinity

Janus knows the existence and destination of all pathways. They govern not only the passages people traverse, but also the
journeys that bind their fates.

Janus is the Titan of passages and roads. They know the existence and ends of all paths. Janus' power can open the doors to all broken
mortal worlds, create non-existent paths, and point to unseen directions. Janus is the god most revered by humanity amid the three
Fate Titans. Compared to the shapeless Talanton and the silent Oronyx, they are more willing to guide humans. They are also the first
god that woke from chaos in myths. They created roads and connected cities. The passages that Janus rules over are not just doors
humans traverse through, but also the path that connects destiny. They reveal fate through prophecies and point the way forward for
humanity.

Janus made countless roads, as well as countless choices. They guide humans to the correct path, so mankind will avoid the destiny of
confusion. It is also due to the vow between Janus and Thanatos that the souls of the dead can be ferried towards the next life at the
end of all things.

However, per the laws created by Talanton, blessings come hand-in-hand with curses — Very few are aware that the god of doors is also
the god of isolation and imprisonment.

Talanton
Scales of Justice

Talanton permits neither favoritism nor injustice, safeguarding Amphoreus's taboos and boundaries while prescribing logic and
law for all things.

Talanton is the Titan of law and justice. They rarely appear in the mortal world in physical form and there are almost no records of them
in legend. People often say that they are the rules of destiny, the law of all things, and the divine retribution for violation of such rules
and laws.

Talanton is seen as a manifestation of justice. They uphold the taboos and boundaries of Amphoreus and lay down logic and laws for all
things. They created Balance Coins to ensure that all transactions are of equivalent exchange. They maintain the balance of the world.
Any action that would damage these laws will be subject to retribution. Just as a scale that never tilts, all things must be free of excess
If one wishes to obtain, they must first lose. If you wish to receive the benediction of this Titan, you must pay a cost. Some people even
end up being transformed into terrifying monsters. For this reason, the gods often view them as the mediator of strife. When a dispute
between Titans cannot be resolved, only their judgment is able to satisfy their kin.

Talanton has bound Amphoreus with strict laws, and themselves with an equally strict vow to never allow for favoritism or injustice.
They and their disciples act according to this vow, sentencing those who break their vows or violate boundaries to punishment... Even if
the subject of this judgment is another Titan.

Oronyx
Veil of Evernight

Oronyx weaves the threads of time, upholding the past, present, and future of the world, ensuring the flow of all things.

Oronyx is the Titan of time and night. Before the first dawn created by Aquila, the world was caged in the purest darkness. When the
borders and day and night were separated, the young Oronyx jolted awake from the newborn concept of time, heading toward the outer
reaches of Amphoreus alone.

There, they materialized as the Evernight Veil and henceforth remained afar from humanity, quietly spending their time managing the
fabric of time. In the myths told by the Chrysos Heirs, Oronyx is the most secretive Titan, akin to the bottomless darkness itself. Artists
are thus entranced by the Titan, because the scintillating dots of light in the night's sky can awaken one's desire to understand a place
within themselves.

As the Titan with mastery over time, Oronyx supports all the past, present, and future of this world, allowing for the circulation of all
things. They also collect many eroded memories to prevent them from being forgotten. Oronyx's priests can evoke incredible miracles,
with their secret rituals capable of bringing in the past to the very present, and they also can gain oracles of the future from their Titan
through the echoes across the Evernight Veil.

Titans of Foundation

Georios
Pillar of Earth

All mountain ranges were once manifestations of Georios. They are the biggest, most gentle, and benevolent Titan. The
guardian of the mortal world.

Georios is the Titan of earth. The skies and the seas were also born of their dormant breath. Chrysos Heir mythology believes that every
mountain range was once a physical manifestation of Georios. They are the largest, gentlest, and most benevolent Titan that protects
the mortal world.

Legend states that when the black tide descended, their mountain peaks raised and caused huge ravines to open up. They were split into
pieces and unable to ever reawaken. Georios is also the god of agriculture and history. They gifted their body to the Titans to become
the cornerstone of the creation of life. When death and famine raged, they ignored the wrath of Cerces and shared knowledge of
agriculture with the people of the world. This knowledge stuck with the Amphoreus for millennia. People often use the "hourglass" to
commemorate this benevolent deity. Not wishing for any kind of compensation, Georios has always been silent in the face of the praise
of mortals.

The "Mountain Dwellers" and "dromases" of Amphoreus are all creations of Georios. The clumsy Titan never quite grasped the finer
points of creation and always made their creations far too big. However, at the same time, their creations also absorbed Georios' natural
disposition to become tacit and kind. If there were anything that could send such a Titan into a rage, it would be foolish actions such as
damaging the earth or crops.

Phagousa
Chalice of Plenty
Phagousa enjoys drifting through the mortal world, appearing in the ocean's waves, the river's rapids, and the goblets at feasts,
bringing song, dance, and laughter.

Phagousa is the Titan that controls oceans and storms, as well as the master of honey brew and banquets. They are capable of freely
moving bodies of water across any part of Amphoreus as they please. According to mythology, they are a capricious and
pleasure-obsessed god that sees the oceans as their place of alcoholic revelry. They have an eternal rivalry with the Earth Titan Georios,
with no hope of making peace.

That being said, Phagousa also bears the duty of washing clean the filth of the world. Baths that have received the benediction of the
Titan are able to not only clean the body of impurities, but can also cleanse the wounds of the soul. They have become an irreplaceable
joy in the lives of the Amphoreus' people. At the same time, Phagousa is also the god of banquets and drunkenness. They passed on the
art of brewing to humanity and taught them the first songs and dances with the ocean breeze and waves. In the baths and banquet halls
of Amphoreus, people often sing and imbibe as a ritual dedicated to the mother of the oceans.

Phagousa enjoys roaming the mortal world. They appear in the waves of the ocean, the deluge of the rivers, and the goblets of banquets
to bring song, dance, and laughter. It is said that Phagousa will occasionally appear around long-distance sailing ships and invite their
Titankin to feast alongside the sailors. The only problem is, after every banquet, the intoxicated Titan will whip up huge waves and keep
the sailors awake through the night.

Aquila
Eye of Twilight

When Aquila's eyes that gaze upon the land open, the world welcomes light, and as Aquila's eyes close, the world plunges into
darkness.

Aquila, the Titan of the sky, celestial bodies, and the cycle of day and night, is the largest of the Titans. They reside above the heavens of
Amphoreus, encompassing and watching over the entire world. In most legends, Aquila's pride does not obscure their kindness. They
gaze upon humanity, warming the earth and bringing down life-giving rain. However, they can also transform into the most fearsome
calamity, harshly punishing any who dare to overcome the sky.

In the tales of Amphoreus, Aquila is depicted as a colossal sky-bird with a hundred eyes. When their eyes open, light fills the world, and
when their eyelids fall, darkness envelops the land. In the war against the Calamity Titans, many of Aquila's eyes were "blinded." This is
why many city-states in Amphoreus are now shrouded in eternal night.

Aquila is also the god of creation and invention, credited with creating the mechanical beasts scattered across the land. Engineers and
mathematicians frequently pay homage to this hundred-eyed deity, hoping to receive inspiration and enlightenment from their
blessings.

Titans of Creation

Kephale
Throne of Worlds

Kephale was entrusted by the gods with the burden of carrying life. They relinquished their throne of dominion over the world,
solely to leave a glimmer of light for humanity.

Kephale is the omniscient, omnipotent god of original creation that holds up the skies. It is said that they were once a monarch that sat
atop the throne, but now they are the god that bears the Dawn Device. Everyone in Okhema is able to see their great form. Kephale was
born from the combination of lightning bolts from the skies striking the spine of the earth.

They were then given the duty of the creation of life. The first humans of Amphoerus were created in Kephale's own image and given life.
Kephale loved these tiny beings so deeply that their majestic figure would always remain in the mortal world to accompany them.
Chrysos Heirs believe that Kephale is the symbol of deliverers and heroes. They are the father of all heroes and the form that all
deliverers will eventually take.

It is said that Kephale abandoned their throne ruling over all worlds just to become a ray of light for the people of Okhema. There is a
romantic legend that circulates throughout the holy city: When the world is in crisis, Kephale will once again open their eyes and lead the
people to victory against the black tide to create the heavens and earth once more.

Mnestia
Chrysalis of Gold

They and their Titankins pursue the beauty of the world, weaving it into golden threads to craft the romance of existence,
granting the inhabitants of Amphoreus the gift of love and affection.

Mnestia is the Titan that symbolizes beauty and love. Their appearance is often illustrated as a beautiful and elusive butterfly with
golden patterns carved into their wings. They and their Titankin pursue beauty in the world, weave it into the golden thread, spin the
romances of humankind and grant everyone in Amphoreus love and affection.

Legend states that Mnestia fell in love with the Reason Titan, Cerces. They sat under the giant tree for a long time, endlessly confessing
their love to the Titan - but Cerces never responded. Mnestia passed away crying tears of blood, and arose reborn from their golden
cocoon as a humanoid figure. Covering themselves with their broken cocoon, they set out on a journey around Amphoreus with the
blessing of their kin.

Finally, Mnestia returned from their adventures with the love of family, friends , and true love gather from the world, wove them into their
golden chrysalis alongside their body and heart, and gifted them to Cerces. In the arms of their lover, they were reborn in the Chrysalis
of Gold. Ever since this moment, the butterfly and the tree have been inseparable and dependent on each other for survival.

Today, shadows of the past are cast across ancient ruins. These shadows that drift like scattered veils carry memories of the past. They
are legacies that must not be lost. The divine powers of Mnestia gather these threads and weave them together one by one to reveal
destiny and prophecies.

Cerces
Bough of Rift

Cerces manifested in the world as a great sacred tree, permitting humans to walk beside them, awaken enlightenment, and
reflect deeply to gain knowledge..

Cerces is the master of wisdom, intellect, and vegetation. They wield authority over ecologies, knowledge, and rationality, and people
refer to them as the hermit in search of wisdom. Nature is Cerces' courtyard and also their library. They allow people to study and rest
there, and convey their knowledge to the ignorant tirelessly and generously. It is under their guidance that civilization and cities began in
Amphoreus.

Cerces graces the world in the form of a grand and holy tree. Where they take root, vegetation spouts to become a massive forest. And
here, scholars walk by their side, enlightened in reason and thinking in debate, creating courts in search of new learning. They also gifted
a seed to Kephale, allowing it to become the Garden of Wisdom, and allowing scholars to seek the Titan's wisdom even if they stand far
from the holy tree.

Cerces power infuses every last plant in Amphoreus, from branches and vines to the very leaves themselves. In accordance with the
pact they struck with Georios, they mediate life, allowing the green and soil to be in perfect balance. Upon accepting their blessing, the
plant life can also gain the rationality to debate humans. This warns people to remain humble, for the truly wise might be the quiet ones
around you.

Titans of Calamity

Nikador
Lance of Fury

They declare war on the pantheon, plunging the world into endless strife. In ballads of bards, their divine blade of retribution
could level heavens and earth in a single strike.

Nikador is the Titan of strife and competition. According to the mythology circulated among the Chrysos Heirs, they declared war on the
 gods and cast the world into endless strife. However, battles also took a toll on the god of war, as the divine body became corroded by
the black tide, and they fell into endless madness. As their rage and ambition were never quelled, their Titankin legion still roams the land
waging war against imaginary enemies.

Nikador is a noble warrior that wears pure white sacred armor. Legend has it that the Lance of Fury that they wield can raze even the
most powerful and prosperous city to the ground. Their bloodthirsty temperament has also made them a god of blood and sacrifice.
Warriors gather under them and yearn to follow Nikador into war and achieve an honorable death. Their disciples built a fortress known
as Castrum Kremnos that brings turmoil and fear to the world, much like their god.

There was a time when this god of war was also a symbol of protection: Using extreme violence to extinguish strife and using war to
maintain the balance of Amphoreus.

Zagreus
Coin of Whimsy

Without the velleity to carry out their divine responsibilities, Zagreus relish in creating disagreements amongst the gods, tricking
them, and creating a mélange of chaos and disorderliness.

Zagreus is the Titan of lies and fortune. According to the mythology of the Chrysos Heirs, their entry into the Pantheon was a complete
accident. They once stole Mnestia's seat, and disguised themself as Mnestia to be worshiped.

The true Zagreus is often depicted as a two-faced god who is both smiling and crying. Its two parts are much like the coexistence of lies
and truth in the world. One cannot exist without the other. Zagreus has no interest in fulfilling their divine duties. They love to cause
divisions in the paths of the gods and play tricks to sow chaos and disorder. They do not have their own altars or temples, either. This is
because even Zagreus' disciples would not worship such a god. Thus, they have become the god of the poor and unremarkable. Legend
states that they often appear in barren desert areas to provide people with unpredictable opportunities and change. Before setting out
on a long journey, people would often curse the name of Zagreus to reduce the chances of them encountering thieves or ill fortune.
They would also offer up prayers in times of suffering, in the hopes of everything suddenly turning around.

This is precisely the reason that they are tolerated. Nothing is perfect, and no truth remains eternal. Change and carelessness can be
fatal, but they can also be a savior in a critical moment.

Thanatos
Hand of Shadow
 When countless souls find no place to rest, then the tides of the River of Souls will surge onto the land, and Thanatos will steer
their vessel to guide the dead to the afterlife.

Thanatos is the Titan of death and annihilation, and no one knows their true form - for the dead cannot relay legends to the living. It is
said that their touch causes flowers to wither, soil to crack, metal to corrode, and flesh to turn to ashes everything shrouded in thick,
dark mist and disintegrating into meaningless fragments.

Though the Chrysos Heirs consider themselves demigods by blood, they cannot escape the inevitable fate of organic life — death. The
River of Souls seeks out death and forms a path to the underworld across barren fields. When war claims too many lives, and souls have
nowhere to rest, the tides of the River of Souls surge onto the land, with Thanatos steering a ship to claim the wealth of the deceased
and guide them to the afterlife.

They are believed to be second in justice only to Talanton, as they only take the excess from the gods, without robbing the deceased of
the ́assets they need to reach the afterlife. As night falls upon the world, death and darkness become the rulers of Amphoreus. An
unknown black tide rises in great waves, swallowing the mortal realm and shattering the balance between the nether realm and the living
world. The wandering spirits and monsters across many battlefields, trapped between life and death, seem to signify that even
Thanatos, the keeper of death, is powerless before this force.
